    Dear bwale:

    I was wondering if you are still living with your parents and if your father still shouts at you, if you still teach ballet (without your disapproving father’s knowledge), if you still work at the gym… if you ever returned to formal education (public health  I believe it was)?

    Hi bwale,

    I unfortunately, have been in many long distance online relationships. Many of these men, I met on Social media sites such as Google plus, Facebook, etc. Many of them, I developed a very special bonding with..we would talk for hours on video chat such as messenger, Hangouts, and other platforms. Many times, there were long pauses when we would write back and forth. I knew he was writing to other women. It’s extremely difficult to make a long distance online relationship work. Many of the men I talked to were from different continents, states, etc.

    Some of these men ended up being very dishonest, finally asking for money, or an arranged marriage, or on other dating sites, catohishing, you never know who you are really talking too with someone online. It’s too complicated, too much doubt and insincerity on their part. Too many games. Too many flirty emoticons being sent to other women behind my back. Best bet, meet someone local. Or a reputable dating site. Not tinder. x

    Hi Anita, I’m still teaching ballet my dad said as long as it makes you happy but I know he definitely is still not happy. I stopped working at the gym and focused on ballet. I started studying nutrition and food science part time but my father is still not happy with me, probably will never be I guess.

    Hi Eliana, i guess you’re right I should probably start meeting local people. I’m not so social and maybe I have esteem issues. Sometimes I just feel better talking to guys far away and therefore find myself in such situations.  But I guess it’s time to make a change.?

    Dear bwale:

    You wrote regarding Joe: “I’m a  little hopeful maybe something good may develop”- but nothing good has been developing. My thought: better live more purposefully in everything you do. Instead of hoping that something will happen, attempt to make it happen. If it is not happening then abandon it. Set goals and move purposefully toward achieving them,  one  goal at a time, perhaps. No longer living with a disapproving father may be a worthy goal.
